I could easily get addicted to this pattern. It's not too tricky for my dodgy sewing skills and I get to use up loads of little scraps of fabric. His arms, legs and ears are quilting leftovers, his body is brown polarfleece (very snugglable for a little one) and his face is felt.
I used a bit of interfacing in his ears to give them a bit of body without stuffing them, but I'm not sure I'd do it again as they've gone a bit too firm. Perhaps some cuddling/chewing will soften them up.
We've had tears over him already "I want to keep him - you can make a different one for the baby". Actually, we have this every time I make a softie - Backtack bunny nearly got kidnapped on the way to Larissa. Strangely the only one Mark is keen to get rid of is big bad bunny.

Perfect baby gift. I love the combination of fabrics.
"NO, I want to keep this one!" YOu can make the baby and your kids another one. he he he.
It's really cute.
I had to make one too. http://www.flickr.com/photos/40134352@N00/153729221/ is my Frankenmoopy. I was a little unnerved to see one arm coming out of his head, poor dear, thus the name. Yours is lovely. (jealous, jealous lol). I think my munchkin will find it perfectly chewable, if I can part with him. Hmm, maybe i need to make another...
Ppfft on Mark for wanting to get rid of the big bad bunny.
Moopy is quite adorable!
Very cute - might have a go at this one myself
Mini moopy is gorgeous! Love him.
I do love the combination of fabrics, very cool looking!
This is lovely. I was thinking about making one but find it hard to get around to doing anything! You have inspired me.
This looks like fun! I'm planning to have a go too :)
